“When that leg is better, I want you riding me,” he says, and that sounds amazing.

“Yes,” I call out from the pleasure but also because I like that idea.

I move my hips in rhythm to his thrusting, and we become unhinged together. Fucking our brains out. I can’t get enough of him. Enough of this.

He rubs me in all the right places and then I feel myself falling over the edge. It’s beautiful and life-shattering. I’ve thought of this moment so many times, even after Liam and I broke up. What could’ve been and here we are.

We come together as Liam pounds inside me, spilling his seed.

CHAPTERSEVENTEEN

Liam

“We’re good together, Ward. Admit it,” I say as I collapse above her without putting my weight on her.

“Attraction was never our problem,” she reminds, running her hands over my shoulders.

“But admit it. I am the best sex you’ve ever had,” I say, gloating. I lean over and lie beside her so we can both catch our breath.

“Liam, is this some sort of claim because of Carter?” She looks at me with a crease between her brows and my stomach dips.

I palm my chest. “Do you not know me at all, woman? I would never think that way, especially not where Carter Lewis is concerned. I just want to be your best because I don’t want anyone else coming after me.”

“You’re so sure I’m it for you?” she challenges.

“I do.” My voice dips as my throat clogs. And being here with her now, making love to her, and having her body bow to me as I got her off proved we are meant to be because the chemistry between us is electric.

“You can’t be this sure,” she informs me.

I lie beside her and take hold of her hand in mine. “Oh yeah? And why’s that?”

“Because Liam. We just reconnected.” She thinks she’s stating the obvious, but I know who I am at my core, and I know her at her core. We are meant to be.

“I see I have more convincing to do, but before I deliver more orgasms, I’d like to know what went down with you and Carter. You seem, I don’t know. . . skittish? At the mention of his name.”

Her lips press together, and she looks contemplative. I turn to face her. “Baby, whatever you say is between us.” I take her hand and hold it close to my heart.

“Carter was a bit of a narcissist. I learned that once we got to Brown. He kind of wanted to control every part of my life,” she says, and my stomach dips.

“How so?” I ask.

“He liked to tell me what to wear. He didn’t like it when I made new friends. He didn’t want to come out with the friends I made. He only wanted me hanging around his team. He was subtle at first. It’s not like all that started on day one, if that’s what you’re wondering. He was good to me, and it felt good to know I had someone with me at Brown. Being with him gave me a false sense of comfort. After we broke up, I was a mess, but I also kicked into some weird survival mode. I had no one to rely on, and Carter was there. He was a friend, but he obviously liked me more than a friend, and I was hurting, so. . .”

“I’m so sorry, Sky. I feel responsible,” I apologize.

“You aren’t responsible. We were kids, and we went separate ways after high school. That happens all the time. It’s just I had no one. No family, no close friends.”

“What about some of the girls from back home?” I ask.

She gives me a look that says I should know better. “They weren’t real friends. High school was about fun, parties, boys. I think those girls kept me close so I wouldn’t steal one of their boyfriends.”

“Then we should have told everyone we were dating. It would have put their mind at ease.”

“No, it would’ve got me thrown out of the Pattersons’ house early and who knows where I would’ve ended up. At least I got to finish high school,” she says.

I nod. She has a point.

“So what happened with Carter?” I ask.
